Hello,
this is not my first post but my first topic so let me introduce myself. I am not new to shooting having been a 11B [AMF(L)/25th Inf], then getting into rifles and pistols in my free time. I have recently decided to build a shotgun for GP use. So I started with the concept of bying a FN TPS (w/removable chokes) and at that point being mostly done.. but after unfaverable reviews i have now moved resurching to building my own. so heres what we have so far:
Rem 870 action
Mesa Tactical LEO Telescoping Stock Adapter-Apoxy a Limbsaver grind to fit on the AR butt.
Murcury recoil with a spacer of some form in the tube
Mesa Tactical 6 shell holder
Mesa Tactical picatiny
eotech ( i already have)
Hogue forend
Wilson jumbo head saftey
So the missing piecs of the build as i see it are:
Barrel
iron sights
mag tube extention.
as to the barrel i was thinking 18 - 18 1/2" barrel (possably ported) with Rem choke set up so i could choose from the large selection of Rem stuff. I would apricate any isite into barrels as searching for barrels on a gun site is about like searching for "savage" over at savage shooters :shock: 3000 post and none realy addressing the issue.
Iron sites .. with a picatiny rail i can find rear sites any where and was thinking of a YHM or a GGG flip up. the real question here is the front site? at this point the only soliton i can dream up is a short picatiny or perhaps a picatiny barrel magazine clamp.. with a flip up front site from one of the the above mounted.
Mag Tube Extention.. i have not realy been able to look at this (the search for a barrel solution has keep me busey) so any help would be apricated.. i do know i want to maxamise my number of rounds based on the barrel lenght.
Thanks for all your help, reading the basement has been intersting and informative.
